UFC middleweight Markus Perez is his biggest critic.
Looking back at his Octagon career after some disappointing outings, ‘Maluko’ is the first to admit his latest performances were not those of a UFC caliber athlete. In fact, the Brazilian believes he did not do enough to remain hired by the promotion following his last defeat.
In an interview with Ag Fight, Perez even asked the UFC to let him go. The way Markus sees it, maybe the time away from the Octagon could help him sort out some personal issues, which could assist him in returning to the promotion at a later time in his career.
